    Summary

    The pilot 'episode' and Halloween special to my crack AU in which Hell is overrun by obnoxious cereal mascots, thanks to some bad decisions made by Lucifer, and after one of them kidnaps the toddler Charlie he and Lilith decide to recruit a mercenary who is both strong enough to kill them and smart enough to solve the cereal-box brainteaser they left behind to figure out which cereal mascot it was. And who would be a better choice to hire as a hitman against a gang of cereal-themed cartoon villains than "Earth's finest cereal killer"?

    Summary

    Stuck at Slough House and quietly coming apart, River Cartwright never expected a routine errand to cryptology to change anything. Then he meets Annie Stuart — sharp, brilliant, and impossible to ignore. But her talents haven’t gone unnoticed, and some secrets are more dangerous than they look.

    Every code has its flaw. Every spy does too.

    This story is set immediately after Slow Horses Season 4.

    Summary

    Tim tries to keep a stable life. He really does.

    He tries to keep a job, maintain his house, and take his medication—all regular things in a regular person’s life.

    But sometimes that person wakes up with a busted leg, in the middle of nowhere. Sometimes that same someone befriends a neighbor, who disappears, and leaves behind a plethora of odd evidence of her stalking you and your old friends from college, and has notes about this channel called ‘Marble Hornets.’

    Sometimes that person also gets a cat.

    Or;

    The series of Marble Hornets, rewritten, with a new ending, and a dreadful confirmation of who that third member of TTA is.

    Summary

    A young Hannibal Lecter is enrolled in a penpal program, and finds himself matched with a young American he only knows as "Etudiant Quatre." As time passes it becomes clearer and clearer that Quatre is remarkable and Hannibal wants, more than anything, to have a friend. Of course, Hannibal's version of friendship is a lot more possessive than Quatre may be able to understand. It's okay, though. They're a world apart. What's the worst that could happen?

    An epistolary character study (in large part, let's be real I'm not exclusively writing 30 years worth of letters here) of our good murder boys. They meet when they are very young (8/9 and 13/14), and the story covers chapter by chapter roughly six month to one year increments between 1986 and 2016 where they write to one another and their lives intertwine. They are snarky and pretentious and their friendship is the only real thing either of them has to cling to. One day, they will meet, but under what circumstances? Whose design brings them together at last, 20 or 25 years later? This is a VERY slow burn, but burn it shall.

    Summary

    For his entire life Tyler had had this sneaking suspicion that he’d missed something somewhere along the line – a day at kindergarten or a book that children were supposed to read in their early years – and that he had as a result not learned how exactly how he was supposed to be a human being.

    He had felt all of these feelings for so long that they had become a cosmic background drone in his life, a fact as undeniable as gravity – he was an apple that had fallen out of the only tree in the world that produced floating apples. Tyler Joseph was an anomaly, and everybody knew it, and everybody pretended that they didn’t but they all secretly hoped that he’d figure it out one day and do something sudden and drastic to fix it and become a working member of a society they all secretly despised.

    It’s 1966, and from a listening post atop a man-made hill in West Berlin, conscripted signal analyst Tyler Joseph spends his days buried in dots and dashes. He’s so alone, bored, and alienated that when a jazz song with a very peculiar drumbeat creeps into his airwaves, transmitted from beyond the wall, Tyler wonders if he’s found someone else out there who understands him.
